Compound A has molecular formula C4H10. Compound A gives two monochlorides, B and C, on photochemical chlorination. Treatment of either of these monochlorides with potassium tert-butoxide gives the same alkene (C4H8) as the product, but B leads to just one isomer of the alkene, D, whereas C gives D and another isomer of the alkene, E. Treatment of monochlorides B and C with aqueous ethanol gives products F and G, respectively, both of which are of molecular formula C4H100. What are the chemical names of compounds A-G?

A hydrocarbon (X), with the molecular formula: C8H14 is reduced in presence of sodium and liquid ammonia to give the only product (Y) with the molecular formula: C8H16. Compounds X and Y both resulting 2,5-dimethylhexane when treated with hydrogen and platinum catalyst (H2/Pt). As a result of the oxidative cleavage of compound Y (by using KMnO4 / H2SO4), a single carboxylic acid derivative with C4H8O2 molecular formula is formed. Again, as a result of the reaction of Y with perbenzoic acid, the chiral compound C8H14O is observed, but the reaction of compound Y with bromine gives the achiral C8H14Br2 as the product.

7. You discover a bottle of compound A with the label "C8H₁4" in the lab. Compound A decolourizes Br2 in CCl4 and becomes compound B (C8H14Br2). Treatment of B with two moles of potassium hydroxide produces compound C. Treatment of C with acidic potassium permanganate produces two four- carbon compounds: a diketone and a dialdehyde, respectively.

New hydrocarbon compounds K, L, M and N have been formed from an organic reactions in Dr. Meredith laboratory. She found that compound K and L with molecular formula (C;H14) are unsaturated hydrocarbons with positional isomerism. Meanwhile, the reaction of hydrocarbon from compound M produces carbon dioxide and water when burns in plentiful oxygen. Another observation showed compound N produces three products X, Y and Z when react with chlorine gas in the presence of UV light. Identify the name of unsaturated hydrocarbon compound K and L and draw their possible condensed and skeletal structures. Suggest the IUPAC nomenclature name for compound M and write the complete chemical reaction of compound M when burns in plentiful oxygen. Show the complete mechanism reaction that occur for the formation of products X, Y and Z from compound N.
